Recalculation of you tax refund 2008 –2009

If you’re from the UK, you’ll want to pay close attention to this! Notice that this scam is addressed to “undisclosed recipients”, yet it starts out with “Dear Applicant”—singular. But that’s not why it’s a scam. It’s because this was sent to me—I’m an American, and I have no reason to file for a tax refund in the UK. I’m guessing that this was sent to thousands of “undisclosed recipients” around the world. And by-the-by: this is a phishing scam. If you reply, the scammer can gain access to your personal info and steal not just your money, but your identity. Delete this phishing scam and don’t reply.
